Dirty Steak Was The Unusual Cooking Method Enjoyed By President Eisenhower
Anyone ever cooked a steak like this? I'm going to give it a try, I think you would use lump charcoal too?!!Like a moth to a flame, humans have been drawn to fire since the beginning of existence for our very survival. We even evolved to eat cooked food, according to Smithsonian Magazine. And, while the earliest cookware dates to 15,000 years ago (per NPR), our ancient ancestors weren't exactly reaching for their good old trusty cast iron to cook up some ribeyes for their loved ones.

You really should start grilling steak directly on the charcoal.
